Alexandria Fragrances The Best Life is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019. The Best Life opens with Bergamot, Grapefruit, Fig Leaf, and Melon, settles into a heart of Clover, Lemon, Violet, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, and Lavender. Alexandria Fragrances's The Best Life carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This one's a divisive clone, aiming for Davidoff's Good Life but leaving some cold. For fans, it's a nostalgic, clean green gem. For detractors, it's a weak, synthetic mess. Try before you buy, it's definitely not for everyone.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its clean, fresh, and slightly green character makes it ideal for casual wear and the office, where it projects politely. It's less suited for formal events or romantic dates due to its less intense and more understated profile, and good for sport due to its freshness.

About

Opens with a zesty burst of bergamot, grapefruit and lemon, quickly followed by a verdant fig leaf and a distinct green tea accord. Violet and geranium add a touch of delicate florality, while blackcurrant lends a subtle fruity tartness. The dry down settles into a woody embrace of sandalwood with a hint of powdery almond, maintaining that clean, fresh green character throughout.
